Ouch. That makes me think I'm stuck with the large Previews book I have just to have the Deathmate Orange. Wondering if I should get a 2nd just to try to release it with a heat gun and some waxed/parchment paper. Vertical centering on the one I have is pretty bad, and the Previews book as a whole is...

I stumbled across this CGC 9.8 Deathmate Preview Orange on ebay. As far as I know this was only bound inside Previews magazine, so how on earth did they get it out so cleanly to get a 9.8? Any tips? Is it just a matter of heating the binding? I would think doing that would leave enough glue residue ...

Do you know if that Turok #0 preview issue has Solar in it?

Sent you a PM; I'd absolutely love to have the Frank Bolle set!

So I had gotten my hands on one of these virgin variants, Dynamite's Solar #3, with what Dynamite says is "Emanuela Lupacchino's". Does anyone know if Santos has anything to do with this cover, or if Dynamite messed up? https://www.dynamite.com/htmlfiles/viewProduct.html?PRO=C7251302154370...

I'm looking to find the Virgin variants of Dynamite's Solar run. I know they (especially for issues #1 & #2) had low print runs, but is there anywhere standard that still sells them? I picked up some of the later issues from ebay, but those first couple issues are not obvious if they're still at...

Thanks! I don't suppose a truly comprehensive list exists of just all Solar appearances? I may have to create it if not, and see if people on here can find where I've screwed up / missed things (I'm sure I have!).

Sounds like you are having a lot of fun with your particular collection - that’s awesome, man! In recent years I have become obsessed to a very similar degree with an old Marvel imprint from the late 80’s; the ‘New Universe’. Just when I think I’ve found literally *everything* that was ever made (i...

I am gutted that I cannot see this photo! greg fix it! The ability to do attachments (photos) was added about 15 years after the board started. I don't think it ever got implemented correctly. I made a change for this section of the board. Can you see the original image (in the first post) now? Yes...

I'm looking into some of the older Doctor Spektor comics, and it seems like not all of the issues had a Whitman version? I can't make rhyme or reason as to how it was determined, or was it really that all issues had the Whitman versions, but just not all of them show up online? For example in this s...

For any future readers who may want this information, according to Wikipedia (so... take that with a grain of salt), the crossovers are (emphasis mine): "Don Glut had Dr. Spektor crossover with several of his other Gold Key characters such as Tragg and Dagar. Tragg and Lorn make cameo appearanc...

Doctor Spektor #14 ... the collectors' itch is a strong one. Hi and welcome. You sound like the same kind of collector as I am. Wanted to give you a pointer, though I can't remember the exakt reference right now. There is one or two more Spektors with Solar appearances. More of cameos though. At le...

I didn't have much of a comics collection growing up in the 80s-early 90s, but I did have about 10 Transformers issues, well read, a gifted Gold Spiderman #1 autographed by Todd Macfarlane (you know the one with all the webs, that probably is nowhere near as rare as I felt it was as a kid), got heav...
